About IDX plugin compatibility

IDX plugin compatibility means that the theme works well if you add 3rd party plugins (such as dsIDXpress or Optima Express). The theme will not return any errors just by using these extra options. IDX plugins are Optional and they are not required for the theme to be installed and used.

How IDX works: If you install one of IDX plugins, they will work with the theme, without conflicts. BUT the properties added through the plugin can be managed only with plugin features, options. They will NOT be used with the theme options. The properties from IDX are managed in a different database and the theme cannot access those properties (the plugin developers do not offer such access). So you use the plugin as it is, with its own design and features.

About Wp Estate 3.06 version

Wp Estate clients will receive in theme pack 2 versions of the theme: WpEstate 4.0 (latest version) and Wp Estate 3.06 (the older theme version). As said at the beginning, the 2 versions are very different – from design to features. When moving from 3.6 to 4.0 please keep in mind we no longer support the rentals module starting the 4.0 launch. This is used only until version 3.06.

In Wp Estate 3.0 Rentals Module is used as an independent option (not with sales at the same time), but we were limited to adding to features to this module used in the Wp Estate framework. For that reason Wp Rentals theme was created, which has much more options and features related to renting/booking accommodation. If you need a theme for booking accommodation – check Wp Rentals https://themeforest.net/item/wp-rentals-booking-accommodation-wordpress-theme/12921802
